Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à une valve antichoc pour dispositifs de levage par le vide du type comprenant un tuyau flexible suspendu pourvu d'une tête d'aspiration et relié à une source de vide. Dans de tels dispositifs, le mouvement de levage s'effectue de sorte qu'une pression négative dans le tuyau amène la tête d'aspiration à retenir une charge et à la soulever grâce à la contraction du tuyau causée par la pression négative interne, et la valve antichoc (6) est conçue pour empêcher tout mouvement de projection incontrôlé, au moment où une charge est saisie pendant que règne une pression négative. Cette valve antichoc (6) est raccordée à l'intérieur du tuyau à proximité adjacente de l'extrémité inférieure de celui-ci et elle est pourvue d'un corps d'inertie (16), qui fait partie de ladite valve antichoc. Ce corps d'inertie est relié à des éléments ou forme lui-même ces éléments, lesquels sont prévus pour provoquer des ouvertures de valve larges (11, 12), lorsque le corps d'inertie se trouve dans un état d'immobilisation momentané causé par le mouvement relatif dudit corps d'inertie par rapport aux autres parties de la valve antichoc, ce mouvement se produisant initialement lors d'une accélération rapide du tuyau, le vide dans ledit tuyau cessant alors très rapidement.

Abstract: The cutter has a rotor with axially parallel vanes and a cutting ring with blade packets dividing the circumference. Each blade packet has a support block to support the blade with it's cutting edge axially parallel and toward the rotor. The wearing surfaces (10.1) of the support blocks (10) are smooth and, with the radius, form an angle which is less than 90 degrees in the direction in which the rotor (1) runs off. The wearing surface is formed on a wearing plate (10.2) fixed to the support block. The wearing surface is produced by welding re-surfacing and then grinding to a smooth surface. The wearing surface is produced by vaporising or coating, especially to produce a ceramic or chromium coating.

Abstract: The invention concerns a support device (10) for a load-bearing roofing tile (12) which is disposed in a first row (14) and rests on a first roof batten (16) in the region of its ridge-side end section. The support device (10) can be laid in the ridge-eaves direction and placed, at the ridge end, on a roof batten and, at the eaves end, on at least one covered roofing tile. In order to provide a support device which, even in the case of a double plain tile roof, introduces the force exerted by the load-bearing roofing tile into the roof substructure such that the roofing tiles covered directly by the load-bearing roofing tile and the roofing tiles covered by these roofing tiles are exposed to the risk of breakage, the invention proposes constructing the support device (10) as a carrier which can be fitted into the second row (22) of roofing tiles (24, 26) which is covered by the load-bearing roofing tile (12) and adjacent in the eaves direction. At the ridge end, the carrier transmits the force from the load-bearing roofing tile (12) directly to a second roof batten (28), on which the roofing tiles (24, 26) in the second row (22) are suspended, and, at the eaves end, to a roofing tile (36), which is covered by the tiles (24, 26), in a subsequent covered third row (32).

Abstract: The object of the invention is to use centrifugal force to produce energy in an environment-friendly, economic manner for driving purposes or for decentralised electric current or heat generation. The figure shows the simplest embodiment of the device. It consists of a rotary aggregate with accumulator (1), switchable motor/generator (3), and a rotary frame (5) with weights (10) that can be moved in the radial direction and that are linked by cables (9a, 9b) to a cable drum (9) arranged at the centre of the rotary frame (5). The device works cyclically. At the beginning of a working cycle, the rotary frame (5) is rotated by the motor (3). When the maximum speed of rotation is reached, a stopping device for the weights (10) is triggered, so that they are projected by the centrifugal force to the periphery of the frame, unwinding the cables (9a, 9b) from the drum (9) that is also rotated together with the rotary frame (5). When the weights (10) are released, the motor (3) is switched to a generator mode in order to convert the energy of rotation of the rotary frame (5) into electric energy. When the rotary frame stops, the generator is switched back to a motor mode. The energy generated by projecting the weights may also be supplied to an additional generator.
